Re: Proof of Kishi thinking ahead.

Re: Proof of Kishi thinking ahead.

He plans a lot of the story but not the fine detail, it would have been impossible for him to plan everything since part 1 till now in his head, he just plans the basic story line and evolves it more in-depth as time goes on.

Re: Proof of Kishi thinking ahead.

Well most writers plan ahead...
But the chronicles weren't just to prepare the introduction of Obito...That could happen with Kakashi's flashbacks or not happen at all.Everybody was wondering how Kakashi got the sharingan and the chronicles were to clear this up.Most of the times Kishi introduces the villains and then through the development of the story their past is revealed...If Tobi wasn't Obito the chronicles would still have meaning and point.And Madara never revealed any shocking truth about Obito's past,history etc,etc...He mainly spoke to him about his past(Madaras).So that line doesn't indicate much.Kishi might have another story in his mind.

Not always in part one he constantly gave us a sense that destiny was not a part of somones success especially during the neji vs naruto fight.
Yet in shippuden he made naruto the chosen one.
He clearly has commitment issues when it comes to the way his manga goes.

Re: Proof of Kishi thinking ahead.

Yeah he definitely planned ahead. I don't really understand why people think he didn't when theres so much foreshadowing in the early chapter covers of naruto, I mean I'm sure he changes some stuff but it seems pretty obvious he's had the important stuff planned from the start.

Re: Proof of Kishi thinking ahead.

Yes, reading back on the many chapters, I'm noticing that myself. He might not have planned out every in between detail, but the basic plot, beginning and ending were in his head long before he began chapter 1.

When I looked back on part 1 with Neji, I noticed his death was already foreshadowed. From the letter he read from his father, to the changes he made in his life and saying that being called a genius by certain people made him refuse to lose to Kidomaru (same words to Naruto before he died). Even being promoted to Jounin before the others, which quickly fulfilled his part of the story, leaving him with nothing to do but go on his own missions usually without his team, allowing other characters to develop. Then he died the same way he his father did, finally understanding what he was telling him in that letter.

I'm looking back on other characters now for fun and curiosity, to see how much Kishimoto had planned for them.

Re: Proof of Kishi thinking ahead.

I always thought he would have been obito, but Kishi complicated things for himself by trying to throw off readers with the madara thing. Kishi still has'nt answered alot of questions concerning Obito controlling the fourth Mizukage and also how Obito managed to survive a massive boulder in the first place.

^ that.

I think he has a general idea of where he is going, and decides the precise idea and details as the story goes. I don't mean he decided Tobi's idea the very last moment, but not as back as that. Besides the scan doesn't really prove it... Kishi could had been hinting since then Tobi's ID (highly unlikely), or he made a reference to it during the later chapters.

Another way I look at it, is like what Kakashi said to Naruto. He vowed to not let his friends die, then Neji did and Kakashi said that even though he would say it himself, people still died. I wonder if the point Kishimoto was trying to get across was what reality really is, and Naruto had to basically learn a very hard lesson in order to grow. I mean, half the people Naruto gave a speech to did not survive in the end.

Naruto (and the readers) were lead to believe that you could do anything by choosing your own destiny, but in reality, things like unexpected deaths can't be controlled even if you help a person from going down a dark path.
